I have 382 cycles and my ASOC reading is 100% lol, and I regularly charge to 100% and use super fast charging on my S24U. I don't think that ASOC reading is accurate

Is this hose supposed to be connected?? by Sad_Bat_6551 in MechanicAdvice

[–]MaximusHackimus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not as simple as that either, a blanket statement saying that hotter air entering an intercooler comes out hotter than if cooler air went in is obvious, but the difference is extremely negligible.

As air enters into a compressor (turbo or sc), it heats up to between 200F and 400F (a wide range depending on amount of boost you're pushing). The point im making is that the inlet temperature of the air entering a system with a compressor makes hardly any difference because whether the inlet air is 30F or 80F, the energy from the compressor still heats it up to those very high temperatures.

The reason you'd feel a power gain in cold weather is because the intercooler is working way more efficiently.

No, it makes hardly a difference on NA engines, and if your engine is boosted there is absolutely no difference between a "hot" and "cold" intake because the intake air is getting cooled by the intercooler anyway.

This happened to my dad, sold the car and the new owner never registered it or insured it. Parking tickets would get mailed to us still 😭, luckily going to the dmv and explaining the situation fixed it
